Finally, we have a June outing! As you know if you were at the meeting that we had tried to arrange a “super” outing for June, but alas that has fallen through. However in keeping with our focus on Northampton we will tour Mr. Fun’s. Most of you know of it but have never been there. We will not only see the inside, but will get the low down on how the business fared during the many ups and downs in the economy, the history of the business and of the building that it now occupies.

We want to mention that on Fri June 23rd and Sat the 24th they will have and “Indoor Yard Sale” as they need to reduce some of their inventory to make room for incoming merchandise. Although attending the Yard Sale will let you see the inside of the store before our visit, it would be a great opportunity to pick up on some neat stuff at a good price.

We have to change the order of things for this one. Lunch first, then the tour. We will have lunch at Emidio’s, corner of Bath and State at 11:30. Since it will be lunch time I would expect a little delay in getting our meals out. This is a link to their lunch menu http://www.emidioandsons.com/emidioa…/CF.Lunch_Specials.html

Our tour is set for June 26 1:00 at Mr. Funs, 4130 State Rd Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio

There will be a short business meeting before the presentation. Don’t forget, with our 50th anniversary coming up, we will have important decisions during these meetings.

Please attend and get to know the new location.
Quick Rd; is located off of State Rd; or as some referr it as Old Eight. Woodridge School Campus is this most noticeable group of buildings on Quick Rd. The Middle School will be on the right side just after the Admin building as you drive North on Quick. Quick angles off State Rd to the left North of Steele’s Corner’s Road just past State 8.

The Town That Wasn’t, Was, and Isn’t: Botzum will be presented by Ken A Starcher, VP of the Society. We will look at the area that at various time went by the name of Yellow Creek Basin, Niles, Buckeye and Botzum. This is part of our on-going focus on the Township as we near our Golden Anniversary.
